Taste

The wine and company sets my mind to fly, as my eyes are drawn to his. He stands in the shadows with eyes that seem to glow. Teeth that are like small specks of the sun. 1

He comes over and asks if I will walk with him. We enter the darken corridor, our words are music that dance upon the cords of trust, torch lights cast shadows that fool our eyes.2

Life for us, longer than most, but theirs is but a drop in the bucket compare to ours. Me, a rogue, with traces of vampire in my background. Him, the scent says a man. I can sense that he is more beast from the wild, wolf in truth, and his body is scarred and rough, though still so very handsome.3

I can sense his hunger for it reflects my own.4

The time is ripe, for as close as we are, I do not stop him as I allow him to do as he wishes. We are soon facing each other, heighten senses already has his arms around me holding me close. I feel myself being lost in the love and lust his scent is emitting.5

Resting me up against the wall, coldness on my back as his hands passes over my eyes, my breathing slows and yet I do not resist. Permission is now granted with no spoken words.6

Air touches my warm skin as my blouse is open to exposed breast that are perfect. I see that his eyes have taken on the hues of the wolf. His canines grow, fear I have none. For I know he will not really hurt me, I can feel it deep within me. 7

I can now feel his tooth graze my breast. Slowly he sinks it down. I allow just one puncture, one small sample, one drop of heated blood from me. Then, with sadness, I feel him pull back. For his wish of one taste, one single drop of my sweet blood was granted to be given freely.8

It is then that my eyes sparkle, and my smile appears for what was offered was all that he took. Just one taste. With it came a promise for so much more, as the days of our long lives would grant.9

The wolf became my lover, and could have his fill of my blood. But that gift was return, when I was allowed to sink my teeth as our bodies were forever woven as one.10
